Dr. AHM Mostafa Kamal, Human Anatomy Specialist

The Knowledge of the structure of the human body from what can be seen with the unaided eye (gross anatomy) down to the molecular level is fundamental to understanding bodily function and how both structure and function are modified by disease. During the last few decades, there has been a blast of new techniques for imaging anatomy in living patients. Examples range from endoscopy and laparoscopy to computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), together with newly emerging technology for three-dimensional visualization. As a result, knowledge of gross anatomy has become increasingly important, not only to interpret the images that are produced by these sophisticated techniques, but also to understand the pathway for targeting therapy to a specific site. Ironically, at a time when knowledge of anatomy is increasingly important, we now are facing a crisis in anatomical education. A deepening shortage of experienced faculty members willing to teach gross anatomy to medical and dental students, as well as other health professions students, has developed.

Different Medias including electronic media can be used to teach the medical students. Medical education in most of the cases is neglected in our country. There is shortage of efficient teachers particularly in the field of basic medical science.
